There is no doubt that 10000
miles of new railroad will be built dur
ing the year, absorbing not less than
S2oO,o0O,O 900 of capital, and the sum
already invested since January 1 is
certainly $75,OOO,OOO. Real estate
improvements have more than kept
pace with railroad building, and by
the end OF the year at least $500, OOO,.
200 will have been expended in new
buildings in the cities and towns of

Persons Perish While Making fltiful Attempts
to Escape From tho Fiery Furnace.
| A horrible holocaust occurred at Hurley,
Wis.,, last Saturday the 9th inst. Shortly
before the performance began in the Alcu-
sar theatdr fire was discovered In tho
building, and the widest excitement pre-
vailed. The structure was OF frame, and
be1orP they could escape seventeen people
were burned to death. Their names, so
| far az known, are:
Frank Young Sadie MoCabc, William
Tillie Moore Mabel Goodrich, Sadie Wells,
Mrs. Fenton, Lowrie Brainetd, John Jar.
| ret stage carpenter; fatally injured. Jon.
| mic Sheridan; fatally injured. Mable Pow
ers; seriously injured.
All Of the above, except Jarrett, were
actors or actresses. Seven bodies In tho
building are yet unidentified. The scene
was one Of the widest terror: The Alcazar
was q variety thcater, chiefly ftequentctl
unsavory repute. associated with the no.
torious dance houses OF the mining regions.
| The Alcazar was In the very heart of tho
| city, and was q mass OF flames within an
hour. The fire seemed to leap from build.
Ing to building until several blocks became
roaring oven. It was not long before
| every business building between Third and
Fifth avenue was In flames.
Some OF the losses arc as follows:
Moore, McFerrin 4 Co., dry goods, $780,
900; J. A. Slender, $40, 1000; Moore, Agnew

The insurance will be very light because
Hurley has had two disastrous fires within
q few months and the insurance companies
have been scaling down premiums, in many
eases canceling them entirely.
This fire. together with the one of the
previous week, destroyed nearly all of the
business portion of the town, leaving only
q few stores standing. Both sides OF Silver
end Copper streets were burned for dis
lance OF three blocks. The losses are par
tielly covered by insurance OF about $780,
900. The loss by the two fires will amount
to fully 5000, 900.

The fact that there were but $4,000
interest checks for the 4-per cent
bonds sent out from Washington at
the end Of the fiscal yea1, as compared
with Al, 900 twelve months ago, shows
that the small holders have been selling
in thepast year, and that these bonds
are steadily drifting into hepossession
of the banks. This is the best form
OF security for circulation, as it will
not mature until 1907.

Inimicai to Woman,

The commissioner OF the gen eral land
office has decided that married woman
cannot make purchase of timber in Cali
tornia, Oregon, Nevada and Washington
Territory under the laws governing the
sale Of such lands in those states. These
lands require no entry, and their purchase
at $3.50 per acre is as absolute as the pur-
chase OF IL town lot. Tho commissioner
gives no reason Tor denying this right OF
purchase to women beyond that it
Is in line OF his general policy
denying married women the entry OF land
under any OF tho land laws of the United
States. About forty cases have been de-
cided in this way and are now hung up in
the general land Office awaiting tho action
OF the secretary upon a test case which has
been appealed to him, and which he has
made special. The law officers OF the in
terror department are very impatient over
Sparks illegal action, and the case will
without doubt be decided in favor OF the
woman's right to mako such purchases.
